{wiki=Ovoid_(polar_space)}
An **ovoid** in the context of polar spaces is a specific geometric structure that arises in the study of spherical geometries and polar spaces. Polar spaces generally consist of a set of points and tangent (or polar) lines (or hyperplanes) that relate to some quadratic form. Ovoids are subsets of these spaces that have distinct properties.
